The possessive Form of Nouns.


 the possesive Form of Nouns:


*Use the possesive Form of a Noun To show ownership.

* To make the possesive form, put an apostrophe and an S: 'S after a singular Noun.

Examples:

1-This is my bed and that's peter's bed.

2- we all like Dad's  Cooking.

3- it is my job to collect everybody's plate after the meal.

4- the flies are buzzing around the horse's Tail.

5- This is Susan and Jenny's room.

6- This is Tom's Hat and that is tom's Father Hat.


* Notes:

1- How do you make the possesive Form when two names linke by and are the owners?. Put an 'S after the second name only.

Examples:


1- Katy and Mike's House is very big: (the house that belongs to Both katy and mike).



2- Joe and sarah's Dad works at the shoe factory: ( He is Joe's Dad and also sarah's Dad).




2- Sometimes two possesive forms with  's  appear together, one after the other.


Examples:

1-this is jhon's brother's ball: ( the ball belongs to jhon's brother).

2-Paul's teacher house has a swimming pool: ( The house that belongs to paul's teacher).


2-  After Plural nouns that don't end in S, use an apostrophe and an S: 'S to make the possesive form.


Examples:

1- The children's room is always messy.


2-Some people's Houses are bigger Than ours.


3- Rat's tails arelonger than mice's Tails.


4- Men's Voice are deeper than woman's voices.


 3- After plural nouns that end in S, just add an apostrophe: S'.

Examples:


1- The pupils' Desk are arranged in rows.


2-The Boys' bedroom is bigger than the girls' bedroom.


3-The strong winds destroyed all the farmers' crops.


4-Mice's tails are shorter than rats' tails.


NOTES:

*When a name ends in S, you can make the possesive Form in either of two ways:

1- Add an apostrophe and  an S: 'S


*Examples:

1- This is james's House.

2- Which is charles's Bike?


2-Add just an apostrophe: '.

Examples:
